BCDA gets 2 Gold Stevie Awards

MANILA, Philippines — The Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) recently bagged two Gold Awards in the highly prestigious 2023 Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards for its innovative annual report publications in the past three years.

Deviating from the usual format of annual reports through innovative storytelling and creative design, the “One Nation, One Legacy” BCDA annual report series from 2019 to 2021 was awarded the Gold Stevie Award for Innovation in Annual Reports.

Moreover, the state-run corporation’s 2021 annual report, entitled, “We Build As One” received the Gold Stevie Award for Innovation in Government Publications.

These awards signify additional feathers to BCDA’s cap, three years after winning two bronze medals in the 2020 Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards for the 2018 Annual Report, “Clark. It Works. Like A Dream”, and the BCDA external newsletter, “Collective.”

Adopting elements of a lifestyle magazine both in terms of content and design, BCDA’s One Nation, One Legacy annual report series tells the story of BCDA and how its projects have impacted Filipinos before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

The reports include human interest stories anchored on corporate governance, business development, project management, and corporate social responsibility initiatives to communicate BCDA’s role as a catalyst of national growth and provider of economic opportunities for Filipinos.

The Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards are the only business awards program to recognize innovation in the workplace in all 29 nations of the Asia-Pacific region.

The Stevie Awards are widely considered to be the world’s premier business awards, conferring recognition for achievement in programs such as The International Business Awards for 21 years.
